There has long been an increasing demand for healthy produce and quality 
imported food among Chinese consumers. To keep pace with the trend, the food 
and beverage sector looks to the source of produce and logistics. In recent 
years, China has secured Free Trade Agreements (FTAs) that eliminate imports 
tariffs with a range of countries. Besides, the US and China have just agreed 
on the terms of a "Phase One" trade deal, further strengthening the trade ties 
between the two countries in terms of agricultural products including pork and 
poultry.

According to Han Jun, Vice Minister of China's agriculture and rural affairs, 
China is the largest market for farm product imports. Import volume for 2018 
reached US$137.1 billion with a year-on-year increase of US$12.5 billion. Han 
pointed out that agricultural imports will continue to rise as the demand for 
imported product remains strong.

According to statistics from a report released by CBNData, the research arm of 
Chinese business news publication YI Magazine, the market volume for the fresh 
produce sector in 2018 reached 4.93 trillion yuan (US$706 billion), up 5.3% 
compared to 2017, with a rapid expansion in the size of e-commerce platforms, 
such as 7Fresh.

"The move to seek a new trade relationship between the US and China sends a 
positive message to suppliers in both countries. As barriers to trade and 
logistics continue to come down, a great opportunity for customers to enjoy a 
diverse lineup of fresh products is opening up," said Zhang Bing, CEO and 
founder of Jiuye SCM. "With 5G, new retail, and the lifting of tariffs, 
globally sourced products are becoming widely accessible to consumers. Set 
against the background, we are seeking new solutions to facilitate the cold 
chain logistics between the two countries through our state-of-the-art delivery 
technology, enabling customers worldwide to enjoy fresh produce with a tap of a 
finger."

Jiuye SCM has established an all-in-one platform that offers trackable services 
from the storage facility to last-mile-to-door delivery. With its fresh supply 
chain management, it takes only 72 hours from the farm to table; all while 
being kept at the optimum temperature between 0 to 4 degrees Celsius. From 
packaging, document preparation to custom clearance and more value-add 
services, Jiuye's one-stop-shop solution guarantees that each package of fresh 
produce arrives fresh, safe and on time. The company also offers storage and 
point-to-point delivery services to e-commerce sellers seeking efficient and 
secure logistics solutions. 

Jiuye SCM works closely with suppliers from North America, Europe, Africa and 
Oceania to create tailor-made services including ordering from the farm, 
processing, cold warehousing, transportation, last-mile delivery and promotion.
